After learning about the different characteristics of satellite data, students will describe the advantages and disadvantages of using two different satellites to study the Urban Heat Island Effect.  

Students will analyze a line graph that shows how the surface temperature and air temperature values change over the course of 24 hours.

This graphic organizer may be used to help students analyze the processes and components of Earth System phenomena.

My NASA Data has recently released several new resources, StoryMaps, for use in educational settings.

Students will analyze and interpret graphs to compare the flow of (shortwave) energy from the Sun toward China over the course of a year on cloudy versus clear days. Students will draw a conclusion and support it with evidence.

Students will analyze and interpret maps of the average net atmospheric radiation to compare the flow of energy from the Sun toward Earth in different months and for cloudy versus clear days. Students will draw conclusions and support them with evidence.
